South Dakota Doctor Says He Has Family Members Who 'Deny' COVID 'Exists,'

Unread post by AHE »

As of Thursday morning, South Dakota's COVID-19 positivity rate stood at 55.9 percent, making it the highest in the nation after Wyoming. Since the start of the pandemic, the midwestern state—which has a population of about 885,000—has seen a total of more than 68,000 novel coronavirus infections and 674 deaths.

The seven-day average of new infections in South Dakota is currently north of 1,400 per day. Despite the surge in new infections, medical professionals in the state have said many still do not believe the pandemic is real.

"I have family members that deny it exists. It's hard to have that conversation with them," Dr. Austin Simonson, an internal medicine specialist at the Sanford Medical Center in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, told CNN on Thursday.
